    Hell i couldnt of done better. That looks good. Especially all those sharp edges. I hate it when the freight on the back is not even or square.. Got to get creative with it , but u got it buttoned up nicely

    I have a "need" to share some of the things I did last week... Went thru 2 boxes of pictures and old cards, and post cards, and over one hundred old letters.... finally filled up two boxes of papers, pictures, documents, etc, etc. and burnt them all.... Spent about 2 hrs.... that was FUN!!

    This was my dog when I was a teenager.... My mom ended up keeping her when I left their place...

    This other one was lost walking in the middle of the street when I saw him... and he saw me... and ran to my arms... He was 2 months old... little cute thing.. I gave him to a friend who already had 6 other dogs... cause I was fixing to go to Brasil again and didn't plan on keeping a pet... He grew up to be a wonderful beautiful happy dog...

    These were some of the machines and tools that I had in my jewelry workshop in my home in Rio back in the 80's... pictures are not clear cause they are pictures of pictures...

    That last one, the black puppy...haha. Cute as a bugger, but has that look of..."I cause mischief like a champ!".

    Some good looking pups.

    The black arrow in this picture points to the building where my apartment is in the city of Rio... That picture is old... nowadays there are more buildings in that are... half of the hill to the left is Sugar Loaf Mountain.. that's a touristic place always visited... there's a cable car that goes from the ground to the first hill and then another to the higher hill....

    20200515_225125.jpg

    This used to be the view from my apartment back in the 70's when there were almost no buildings in that area.... We could see Sugar Loaf Mountain... now we see only buildings....

    There it is Sugar Loaf Mountain in the background... cable connecting lower hill to the higher hill... that vehicle was my station wagon... the last vehicle I had in Brasil...

    No wonder Brazilians are comfortable walking almost naked in public... Native Brazilians (indians) don't wear clothes... barely naked....

    That's a picture of a post card.

    This was a nice picture of the Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta during the Olympics in 96...

    20200511_221046.jpg
    My mom and dad came visit us right after the Olympics... and I found very interesting the vehicle behind them in the picture looks like the same vehicle they had in Brasil.... a dark green Volkswagen....

    20200511_220232.jpg
    BTW... my dad's second wife kept that vehicle and restored.... it looks like new! :)
    She sent me a video... put tears of emotion in my eyes....
